WAITING

 Somewhere in the Talmud, a rabbi says, Those who wait also serve. Maybe he meant they serve God or the interests of justice. I find it very hard to wait. It makes me anxious.

I believe the same rabbi (maybe R. Tarphon) also said that it may not be up to you to complete the task, but it is up to you to begin it. I think I have made a good beginning at recovering the historical Jewish Jesus. It will be up to others to finish it.
